Someone needs to get me some tylenol because I have serious baby fever! Two newborns in one week (and other next week)? What is this going to do to the “We’re done with two kids” rule my husband and I have? Seriously, every time I photograph a precious new little one I head straight home and tell Brad that we need to start trying for a third. Luckily he’s always able to talk some sense into me and I resign myself to the fact that I just have to be satisfied with the gorgeous baby pictures that I get to edit. For now that will have to do.
I got to meet 10 day old {V} this afternoon and he was an absolute dream. I still feel so honored every time a new momma trusts me with the first pictures of her precious little one. To allow a stranger into your home to position, snap away, and position some more, your new babe is no small thing and I don’t take it lightly. I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do–knowing that these are images my clients will cherish for the rest of their lives.
{V} wasn’t sure he wanted to sleep at first but once he did, man he was out like a light! I’m sure the heater and the noise machine helped a bit (I think I might have even lost a couple pounds with the sauna-like temperature I kept the room at, but I’ll do anything for a sleepy newborn). I have so many favorites from this session, but here are just a few. {V} was so animated and we even got some great sleepy smiles.
